I have been scooting along quite happily and merrily for a while now.
Purchasing my own scooter a last year or so meant that we can have races to school, go for trips to the park with Amelia and having a jolly good time.
Well, I never thought of taking it out on work trips or train stations and hopping on with it. I was revolutionary for me. I shortened my commute from home to local train station by half, more time at home and best bit of all, the exercise.
Let me describe my scooter, I went for the front and back brake scooter model from Oxelo (Decathlon brand) as I wanted to make sure I could safely brake and felt more in control. As shown below
Why are you talking about Scooters? This blog is all about my fundraising and training for Medaille Trust #bikehike2020
This is because, of the health benefits and the all over body work-out, I have been getting from 10-15 minutes of commuting from this wonderful mode of transport.
You have to self propel, I swap legs to vary the stride and keep an equal workout. Going uphill is a challenge, the stride shortens you work harder and I can tell you that I am getting a sweat on.
This week I have done three commutes using the scooter and my legs are tired. I have been burning calories and feel really good after completing my little journeys.
Here are some details about health benefits of scooters for Adults, I for one will keep going with this mode of transport. Why not give it a go yourself?
